It's finally October! My favourite season is here! Bring on the pumpkin spice, bring on the longer evenings, bring on the one-figure temperatures - my time is here! But the best thing about October? Well, it's obviously Halloween. To be honest, as much as I love dressing up and getting a bit tipsy at the… Continue reading The Halloween Films You Need For a Spooky Night In

What’s In My Work Bag?
Aaaand we're back in the office! Not every day of the week, just two days for now, but it's a start. It's been good to be back in the same room as my colleagues, have organic conversations about our clients or projects without having to schedule them first, and just be working somewhere that isn't… Continue reading What’s In My Work Bag?
Is It Worth It? – The Ordinary Serum Foundation
I am a Revlon ColourStay loyalist. I don't think I've used another foundation in the last four, maybe five years? I'm not kidding, it's actually one of my holy grail make up products, which you can read all about on this previous blog post (plug plug plug). I've never really needed another foundation, because why… Continue reading Is It Worth It? – The Ordinary Serum Foundation
How to Maximise Your Productivity
(Ironically, this blog post took me two weeks to finish) The UK business scene is starting to get back on it feet, with some businesses reintroducing employees into the office environment with new rules and restrictions. For me, I'm still working from home, typing and scheming away at my dressing table/workspace. I do miss the… Continue reading How to Maximise Your Productivity
Blue Light Glasses – A Fashionable Fad, or The Real Deal?
I can't be the only one whose seen the term "blue light" floating around, or the slew of Instagrammers showing off their #spon blue light glasses a lot more lately, right? (Ironically, this is not a #spon post, just so we're clear.) Because of my job, I spend roughly ten hours a day on my… Continue reading Blue Light Glasses – A Fashionable Fad, or The Real Deal?
Everyday Jewellery Collection
If there is one thing I love more in this world than chicken nuggets and Henry Cavill, it's gotta be jewellery. There's just something so elevating to an outfit about jewellery; it's like the cherry on top of a cake. You could be wearing a totally boring, all-black outfit that makes you look like a… Continue reading Everyday Jewellery Collection
Practising Positive Pessimism
(try saying that five times, fast) Unsplash: Austin Chan I know what you're thinking. "Positive pessimism? That doesn't make sense! What is this girl on?" Well, bare with me and I'll explain, alright? I guess "realist" is probably the most familiar term when describing this outlook, but "positive pessimism" does differ slightly. In case ya… Continue reading Practising Positive Pessimism

With this "Feel Good" playlist, that Sunday cleaning sprint will feel like it took seconds, and those moments where you realise everything's going better than expected will last a little bit longer.

Lockdown Purchase Rundown
I remember at the very beginning of lockdown when everyone was talking about how much money we would all save since all the shops were shut and we couldn't go out to eat all the time. HA! LIES! Because I've had some extra cash lying around, I have been a little spend-happy (when am I… Continue reading Lockdown Purchase Rundown
My YouTubers, Now Your YouTubers?
I think it's safe to say that I watch more YouTube than any other media - more than the telly, more than Netflix. I like how accessible it feels, I like that the content tends to be shorter than a TV show or movie, and I feel like I don't need to give it my… Continue reading My YouTubers, Now Your YouTubers?
